After I Stopped Loving Him novel Chapter 1085

Malvina fell silent.

As Jordan's car pulled out of the gated community, it crossed paths with Harold and Isabella's car heading in. Since Jordan had his eyes closed, he completely missed seeing Harold.

But Isabella spotted his car immediately.

Once the two vehicles passed each other, she remarked, "That was Jordan's car leaving just now. I saw him. And the woman driving... she looked exactly like his old secretary."

Hadn't he fired her?

Harold kept his eyes on the road. "He and that secretary were heavily involved. When his wife caught him cheating, he didn't want a divorce, so he put on a show of firing the secretary and banning her from the office. It was all a lie. He's still obsessed with her; there's no way he'd drop her that easily."

When it came to the toxic habits of men, Harold understood it far better than she did.

Isabella pressed her lips together. "A man is only faithful when he's six feet under. He and Natalie were childhood friends, together for over twenty years, and he still cheated after just two years of marriage."

Like father, like son. Jackson had cheated and raised a secret son, and Jordan had followed right in his footsteps.

"Isabella, I'm not like that. I will always be loyal to our family and our marriage."

Harold knew the dark side of men, which was exactly why he immediately needed to clarify his own devotion.

She turned her head to look at him. "We haven't built a family yet, and we aren't married. Nobody can guarantee they'll be faithful forever. It takes a lifetime to prove something like that."

"Harold, if you ever meet someone else who makes your heart race, and we're already married, just come back and tell me the truth. I won't cling to you. I'll sign the divorce papers and let you go."

"You don't need to hide it. The deception is what hurts the most. If you tell me you don't love me anymore and want to leave, it'll hurt, sure, but not nearly as much. What destroys a person is when a man strings a woman along, lying to her, hiding things, and betraying her behind her back."
